The Human Microbiome Project - hands down, the coolest science jinkery I've heard of this week. Let's find out what all those bacteria are doing on - and in - us. It's kind of weird, though, isn't it, to think of yourself as a minority member of your superorganism...

Thierry Henry Rumours
Wow. The Champions League just concluded and the rumour season has already hit full throttle. Consider this the silliest, most wild-ass rumour about American soccer you'll hear this season...however, if it turns out to be true I'll stand in line for the season tickets.

This Just In....
The Black Bottom Pie at Marlene's Market and Deli is the best pie I have ever had anywhere. You must get some.
And, it's 90 degrees in the Seattle-Tacoma area and all across the region people are being blinded and confused by the bright orb in the sky...and the explosion of albino-pale white legs and torsos on display everywhere.
Oh, and I have some parenting advice over the the Mirror.

The Season Is Over...
Finally, the season that began with such promise and excitement for an Arsenal team of young, talented Gunners, has slunk to a close with 3rd place in hand after a 1-0 win over Sunderland's Black Cats. Talk about anti-climactic. The championship was ours to lose and lose it we did, with a string of draws and losses that was enough put Gooners everywhere on suicide watch.
Flamini is gone. Though not as big a loss, Jens is done. Who else might be gone over the summer and who might arrive? We have a couple of months to speculate.
On the topic of little Matty, the boy has revealed himself a right git.
Midfielder Mathieu Flamini has revealed he would have signed a new deal
with Arsenal last summer but the 'pain' of missing out on the 'Premier
League title influenced his decision to leave the Emirates.
Twits take their tail between their legs, cash in and go off to Italy, Matt. Champions take disappointment to heart and come back fired up to win. It's best we see the back of you, then.
The only silver lining, and it is the slimmest of glimmers, is that SAF's boys kept the RMA from taking a trophy, and hopefully, will do the same next week in Moscow.

Arsenal Wins. Jury Out On Comcast
The ref just blew his whistle on an Arsenal 1-0 victory over Everton. The Nick scored the only goal of the game in the 77th minute. That's about all I know because this game was not televised and I'm going from the ESPN Gamecast. Still, a win's a win. Way to go, lads. One more game to go and then we can stop thinking about Arsenal for a day or two and the immediately get back to chasing the title.
My previous post on Comcast brought an almost immediate response from the people who troll the Internet looking for such postings. While that was promising, the second stage of follow-up has not occurred. I gave them my information but have not heard from the local support staff, which was really where I was at when I posted originally.
Hot Word Love
I love words. I've got a new love interest. Thinko. It's the mental equivalent of the typo. Boy howdy, with the number of thinkos (thinkoes?) I suffer a day, I'm going to be using that word nonstop.
